Some Summer Reading and Listening

For reading and review:

Mechanics of the Chant
Gregorian Chant Notation
Latin Pronunciation:

Anything on solfege (way too much to post here)
What to do with your robe
How to end up in Kathy's doghouse

For your smartphone, iPod, mp3 player, or 80s-style cassette Walkman:

Gregorian Chant Class, September 2013 (by Kathy, Fr. Francisco Nahoe, Deacon Joe Bell, and special guest Dr. William Mahrt, video excerpt)
Why Gregorian chant at Mass?, November 2011 (by Kathy)
Many other homilies, topics, and talks at Reno Catholic Network

Finally, speaking of pronunciation, and as we head toward the July 4 weekend, always remember:

NO AMERICAN R's!

Singers Wanted

Regina Pacis Cantorum is always looking for Northern Nevada men and women interested in singing a cappella Latin chant and polyphony. We are open to all voice parts, but we are especially looking for sopranos and basses.

You do NOT have to be Catholic or have any prior chant experience, and we'll help you learn! We sing at both Extraordinary Form and Novus Ordo Masses, and rehearse on Tuesday nights.

Why sing chant at Mass? Let our director, Kathy Reinheimer, tell you why.

If interested, please contact Kathy at the number or e-mail below. Also contact Kathy if you're interested in having Regina Pacis Cantorum sing at your parish or church in northern Nevada or the Lake Tahoe area.
